Bally and GameAccount strike content deal
Bally's suite of online and mobile gaming content will be made available to software provider.
Bally Technologies has continued its recent flurry of activity in the egaming space by announcing an agreement to provide a wide range of online and mobile content to software provider GameAccount Network.
The GameAccount Network platform is licensed and regulated in European jurisdictions and will now offer a host of Bally’s video slot content online and as HTML5 mobile games.
Bally’s games will be made available to GameAccount via a remote gaming server, whereby customers can access content and integrate it into their existing platforms. Available titles include Cash Wizard, Pharaoh’s Dream, Tiger Treasures and Big Vegas.
Dermot Smurfit, CEO of GameAccount Network, said of the deal: “Bally Technologies is a company known in the gaming industry for its technology, content, integrity, and most of all â innovation. We are committed to providing the best available content and service to the growing number of regulated gaming markets around the world. Bally’s games will absolutely help us continue to meet this commitment to our customers.”
Bally Technologies’ vice-president of business development John Connelly added: “We are very pleased to reach this agreement with GameAccount. Bally has an unmatched level of experience in the gaming industry. We have been providing top-performing content for the highly competitive land-based casino industry in North America for years. Both the providers and players of online and mobile gaming in Europe will see great benefit from these outstanding titles.”
In a productive week for Bally, the gaming supplier has announced it will act as online partner to Vegas’ Stratosphere casino parent company American Casino and Entertainment Properties (ACEP). ACEP became the third operator to gain an interactive poker license in the Silver State just last week, and will launch a freeplay poker site by the end of the year, followed by a real money site once Bally’s online poker technology has been approved by one of the Nevada Gambling Control Board’s independent testing labs.
Meanwhile GameAccount Network announced it was set to launch online slot games in Italy in a deal with Eurobet Italia. Initially launched on an instant play, non-download basis only, the Crown Jewels tumbling reel slot is part of a full suite of casino games along with blackjack and roulette on Eurobet’s website.
While slots are yet to be fully launched in the Italian market, the country’s legislation allows for non-spinning slots.
